So I got my temp sensor setup today. It took all of 10 minutes to register on the website, register the gateway and all 3 sensors. Probably took longer to install the batteries (2 AAA not included) and temp sensor probe than it did to get them operational.
I am VERY happy with these silly little 'gadgets'.
It even has a mobile interface that you can bookmark and hit from your cell for realtime green/red alerting.
I will get them installed tomorrow to verify RF works through my walls and around the digital ballasts, but probably will order another 2 sensors in a day or two to put in the veg table room and one outside to monitor 'weather'.
Mobile display looks like this:
Downloadable spreadsheet (of past 30 days only) looks like this:
Playing around with the alerting, seems email alerts take ~2 minutes to show up.
I was not able to get texts sent to my number. Not sure if it hasn't fully activated yet or ?? I will test it again tomorrow. Easy workaround is to put in your mobile # as a secondary or tertiary email address on the alerts.

So far though, I am sort of giddy over this silly thing.
